Wolverine Weekly - October 22, 2017

He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down, and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples,

"Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?" They were terrified

and asked each other, "Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!"

Chaplain's Corner

This past week in Chapel, we continued on through the Book of Mark…specifically Mark 4:35-41.

As you are in your homes, in your cars, and around the table this upcoming week, read the following passage and discuss the following questions:

[READ MARK 4:35-41]

“When Jesus said, ‘Let’s go over to the other side,’ what was He implying [They will make it to the other side]? Why is this important to remember when ‘storms’ come up in our lives?”

“Why do you think that it is important to know that God wants to get you where He wants you more than you want to get where He wants you?”

“God never promises us smooth sailing. Why do you think God allows ‘storms’ to come into our lives?”

“We talked in Chapel about trusting in the promises of God. What are some of God’s promises that you trust in while going through hard times?”

“We talked in Chapel about trusting in the presence of God. Why is it so important to know that God is always with you and will never leave while going through hard times?”

“How can I pray for you?”

THIS WEEK:

“Jesus Heals a Woman and Jairus’s Daughter” (Mark 5:21-43)
